Dimensional formula [M⁰L⁰T⁰] represents: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Dimensional formula [M⁰L⁰T⁰] represents:
A. All of these
B. Angle
C. Refractive index
D. Strain
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Dimensionless quantities: angle (radian = arc/radius), strain (ΔL/L), refractive index (ratio of speeds). All have [M⁰L⁰T⁰]. Memory aid: 'Ratios of same dimensions ⇒ dimensionless'. Dimensional analysis question frequently tested in competitive exams to identify dimensionless physical quantities.

Question #1 Report Error
Gravity work for horizontal motion:
A. Negative
B. Positive
C. Zero
D. Speed dependent

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Gravity acts vertically; horizontal displacement ⇒ angle = 90° ⇒ W = Fd cos90° = 0. No work for perpendicular force-displacement. Memory aid: 'Work = Fd cosθ; θ=90° ⇒ W=0'. Mechanics concept frequently tested to correct misconception that force always does work.

Mercury is used in thermometers because it
A. Has low boiling point
B. Wets glass
C. Has uniform expansion and is opaque
D. Is transparent

Correct Answer: Option C

Question #3 Report Error
Photoelectric threshold frequency ν₀ = φ/h. If work function doubles, ν₀:
A. Quadruples
B. Unchanged
C. Doubles
D. Halves

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
ν₀ ∝ φ. Double work function ⇒ double threshold frequency. Higher φ requires higher photon energy for emission. Memory tip: 'ν₀ = φ/h; larger φ ⇒ higher frequency needed'. Photoelectric effect relation frequently tested in competitive quantum physics sections.
